Guidelines:
Your direct quotations should be no more than three lines long each.
The paper must be typed; 12 point font; Times New Roman; one inch margins;
double-spaced.
You must have a Creative Title. Scout or something to that effect does not
work.
Include the planning sheet I gave you for your character along with your typed
rough draft, peer edit, and rubric when you turn in your final copy.
Writing Tips You Must Follow (or lose points): Check and double-check your paper.
Dont use slang or common words (thing, stuff, etc), unless in a quotation
Use specific, vivid, and detailed incidents and examples to support your thesis
Run spell check, but remember that it wont catch the wrong use of words
(hear/here)
Write in all present tense. Books never end they continue on for a new
reader.
